Dex is THE ren fair hottie that hooks up with a girl at every town. He has had a reputation throughout all the books being in the Dueling Kilts. I just loved getting to see a deeper side of him in this book. Especially considering the lady that finally breaks through and sees him more than a piece of meat. The poor guy was just being treated as what he was treated.

Louisa (Lulu), Mitch’s cousin is at her breaking point with her high paced 24/7 job that as she’s taking a break at a ren faire she quits. Running into the Dueling Kilts she ends up staying with them and Stacey and Daniel and trying to figure out what to do now.

I just loved all the jobs that she took on. My favorite The office manager of the tarot card readers and her tarot card journey. I need to really get comfortable with my tarot cards! But now I think I need to actually get a real deck and not just a Disney villain one.

I loved when these two hit their breaking point finally and laid it all out. Things got hot and though he never had a serious relationship it has to work out right.

I will say the way things wrapped up was just sweet and for my corporate job life made my heart melt at the flexibility that was given. Iykyk.

❓ Have you been to a tarot card or palm reader?

I’ve gone to a wedding and my last high school reunion had hired a tarot reader and I just love it. The cards flipped out both times at me. I really need to listen to them.

Thank you berkleyromance and netgalley for the e-ARC for my honest and voluntary review.

The Renaissance Faire is on the move, and Lulu and Dex are along for the ride, in the next utterly charming rom-com from Jen DeLuca.

A high-powered attorney from a success-oriented family, Louisa “Lulu” Malone lives to work, and everything seems to be going right, until the day she realizes it’s all wrong. Lulu’s cousin Mitch introduced her to the world of Renaissance Faires, and when she spies one at a time just when she needs an escape, she leaps into the welcoming environment of turkey legs, taverns, and tarot readers. The only drawback? Dex MacLean: a guitarist with a killer smile, the Casanova of the Faire… and her traveling companion for the summer.

Dex has never had to work for much in his life, and why should he? Touring with his brothers as The Dueling Kilts is going great, and he always finds a woman at every Faire. But when Lulu proves indifferent to his many plaid charms and a shake-up threatens the fate of the band, Dex must confront something he never has before: his future.

Forced to spend days and nights together on the road, Lulu’s interest in the kilted bad boy grows as he shows her a side of himself no one else has seen. The stresses of her old lifestyle fade away as she learns to trust her intuition and follow her heart instead of her head. But when her time on the road is over, will Lulu go with her gut, or are she and Dex destined for separate paths?
